"The 12 Volt Bible For Boats" 2nd Edition
The "12-Volt Bible for Boats" is a complete introduction to the 12-volt electrical systems used on small boats to power everything from reading lights to bilge pumps. It is written for boaters who are not skilled to install, maintain, and troubleshoot them in a clear, nonthreatening style.
This second edition has been thoroughly updated to include the latest on marine batteries, including AGM and gel-call batteries, multistage chargers, inverters, new wiring conventions, alternative energy sources, and modern test gear, but it retains the fundamental simplicity that is the source of its enduring popularity (more than 100,000 copies sold).
